Die Verwendung der erfindungsgemäßen Wirkstoffe ist je­doch keineswegs auf diese Gattungen beschränkt, sondern erstreckt sich in gleicher Weise auch auf andere Pflan­zen.However, the use of the active compounds according to the invention is by no means restricted to these genera, but extends in the same way to other plants.

Die Verbindungen eignen sich in Abhängigkeit von der Konzentration zur Totalunkrautbekämpfung z.B. auf In­dustrie- und Gleisanlagen und auf Wegen und Plätzen mit und ohne Baumbewuchs. Ebenso können die Verbindungen zur Unkrautbekämpfung in Dauerkulturen, z.B. Forst, Zierge­hölz-, Obst-, Wein-, Citrus-, Nuß-, Bananen-, Kaffee-, Tee-, Gummi-, Ölpalm-, Kakao-, Beerenfrucht- und Hopfen­anlagen und zur selektiven Unkrautbekämpfung in ein­jährigen Kulturen eingesetzt werden.Depending on the concentration, the compounds are suitable for total weed control, e.g. on industrial and track systems and on paths and squares with and without tree cover. Likewise, the compounds for weed control in permanent crops, e.g. Forests, ornamental trees, fruit, wine, citrus, nut, banana, coffee, tea, rubber, oil palm, cocoa, berry fruit and hop plants and for selective weed control in annual crops.

Die erfindungsgemäßen Verbindungen eignen sich insbe­sondere zur selektiven Bekämpfung von dikotylen Unkräu­tern in monokotylen Kulturen, vor allem im Nachlauf-Ver­fahren.The compounds according to the invention are particularly suitable for the selective control of dicotyledon weeds in monocotyledon crops, especially in the wake process.

Die erfindungsgemäßen Wirkstoffe greifen in den Metabo­lismus der Pflanzen ein und können deshalb als Wachs­tumsregulatoren eingesetzt werden.The active compounds according to the invention intervene in the metabolism of the plants and can therefore be used as growth regulators.

Für die Wirkungsweise von Pflanzenwachstumsregulatoren gilt nach der bisherigen Erfahrung, daß ein Wirkstoff auch mehrere verschiedenartige Wirkungen auf Pflanzen ausüben kann. Die Wirkungen der Stoffe hängen im wesent­lichen ab von dem Zeitpunkt der Anwendung bezogen auf das Entwicklungsstadium der Pflanze sowie von den auf die Pflanzen oder ihre Umgebung ausgebrachten Wirkstoff­mengen und von der Art der Applikation. In jedem Fall sollen Wachstumsregulatoren die Kulturpflanzen in be­stimmter gewünschter Weise beeinflussen.According to previous experience, the principle of action of plant growth regulators is that an active ingredient can also have several different effects on plants. The effects of the substances essentially depend on the point in time of use, based on the stage of development of the plant, on the amounts of active ingredient applied to the plants or their environment and on the type of application. In any case growth regulators are intended to influence the crop plants in a desired manner.

Unter dem Einfluß von Wachstumsregulatoren kann der Blattbestand der Pflanzen so gesteuert werden, daß ein Entblättern der Pflanzen zu einem gewünschten Zeitpunkt erreicht wird Eine derartige Entlaubung spielt bei der mechanischen Beerntung der Baumwolle eine große Rolle ist aber auch in anderen Kulturen wie z.B. im Weinbau zur Erleichterung der Ernte von Interesse. Eine Entlau­bung der Pflanzen kann auch vorgenommen werden, um die Transpiration der Pflanzen vor dem Verpflanzen herabzu­setzen.Under the influence of growth regulators, the amount of leaves in the plants can be controlled in such a way that defoliation of the plants is achieved at a desired point in time. Such defoliation plays a large role in the mechanical harvesting of cotton, but is also important in other crops, such as e.g. of interest in viticulture to facilitate harvesting. Defoliation of the plants can also be carried out in order to reduce the transpiration of the plants before transplanting.

Lösungsmittel: 5 Gewichtsteile AcetonSolvent: 5 parts by weight of acetone

Emulgator: 1 Gewichtsteil AlkylarylpolyglykoletherEmulsifier: 1 part by weight of alkylaryl polyglycol ether

Zur Herstellung einer zweckmäßigen Wirkstoffzübereitung vermischt man 1 Gewichtsteil Wirkstoff mit der angegebe­nen Menge Lösungsmittel, gibt die angegebene Menge Emul­gator zu und verdünnt das Konzentrat mit Wasser auf die gewünschte Konzentration.To produce a suitable preparation of active compound, 1 part by weight of active compound is mixed with the stated amount of solvent, the stated amount of emulsifier is added and the concentrate is diluted with water to the desired concentration.

Mit der Wirkstoffzubereitung spritzt man Testpflanzen, welche eine Höhe von 5 - 15 cm haben so, daß die jeweils gewünschten Wirkstoffmengen pro Flächeneinheit ausge­bracht werden. Die Konzentration der Spritzbrühe wird so gewählt, daß in 2000 l Wasser/ha die jeweils gewünschten Wirkstoffmengen ausgebracht werden. Nach drei Wochen wird der Schädigungsgrad der Pflanzen bonitiert in % Schädigung im Vergleich zur Entwicklung der unbehandel­ten Kontrolle.
Es bedeuten:
0 % = keine Wirkung (wie unbehandelte Kontrolle)
100 % = totale VernichtungTest plants which have a height of 5-15 cm are sprayed with the active substance preparation in such a way that the desired amounts of active substance are applied per unit area. The concentration of the spray liquor is chosen so that the particular amounts of active compound desired are applied in 2000 l of water / ha. After three weeks, the degree of damage to the plants is rated in% damage compared to the development of the untreated control.
It means:
0% = no effect (like untreated control)
100% = total annihilation

In diesem Test zeigen beispielsweise die Verbindungen gemäß den Herstellungsbeispielen (2) und (4) erheblich stärkere Wirkung als die bekannte Verbindung (A) gegen Unkräuter, wie z. B. Ipomoea, Sida, Sinapis und Viola.In this test, for example, the compounds according to preparation examples (2) and (4) show considerably stronger activity than the known compound (A) against weeds, such as.

Baumwollpflanzen werden im Gewächshaus bis zur vollen Entfaltung des 5. Folgeblattes angezogen. In diesem Sta­dium werden die Pflanzen tropfnaß mit den Wirkstoffzube­reitungen besprüht. Nach 1 Woche werden der Blattfall und das Austrocknen der Blätter im Vergleich zu den Kon­trollpflanzen bonitiert.Cotton plants are grown in the greenhouse until the 5th following leaf is fully developed. At this stage, the plants are sprayed dripping wet with the active ingredient preparations. After 1 week, the leaf fall and the drying out of the leaves are rated in comparison to the control plants.
